The Last of Us Remastered Holds UK Top Spot For Third Week

Naughty Dog's outstanding The Last of Us: Remastered has held on at the top of the UK All Formats Sales Chart for a third week, in the face of...well...no competition at all.

Ellie and Joel's romp through an ever more increasingly zombiefied America lost some 40% in sales when compared to the previous week, but still stands firm at the top due to a lack of new releases. Ubisoft's Watch Dogs holds on in second after losing 22% of week-on-week sales, and Minecraft: Xbox 360 Edition climbs to #3 after a 1% increase.

The Xbox One edition of Call of Duty: Ghosts has been heavily discounted and celebrates a 7% gain, climbing to #4.

Risen 3: Titan Lords is the only new entry in the chart this week, debuting outside the top 10, at #12. We're expecting Diablo III: Ultimate Evil Edition to break into the hot ten next week, and from then on in it'll be all change as gaming's silly season gets started.

Sept. needs to hurry up already. I want Forza Horizon 2 yesterday and I pre-ordered that Killer Instinct Combobreaker edition from Gamestop which I also think is Sept. Madden 15, provided it's good, should be enough to tide me over from the end of this month until those two hit and then of course Sunset Overdrive in October and Halo in November... Yeah, this fall will be crazy, don't know how I'll keep up and I'm just talking about the Xbox One purchases I plan to make. There's also Games with Gold and I have some PS4 games to get as well.

Yeah, I'm honestly not sure where I'll find the time. I'll make it because I always do, but this year seems a lot more crazy than the last few. I felt like in 2013, the releases were spread enough over the whole year that it wasn't too hard to make time. This year it seems like all the big stuff hits at once.
